Negative about this model
===========================
a )Battery life is very very poor. The problem which is applicable to every samsung mobile.
Once charged fully may last for 1 day.

b) The port provided for charging is common for FM Radio. So you cannot listen radio while you charge your mobile.

c) Voice is very poor. sometimes I have missed some calls due to its poor audibility.

Overall, I will not recommend this model due to its poor battery. because it is one of the important feature you have to look for while purchasing a mobile. Earlier I was having Nokia 6610 which gave battery time of 2 1/2 days.

I don't why samsung is not doing anything in this area(i.e improving the battery)

the reason i didnt go for a high end phone with high end camerais that i have a 5mp canon camera and an ipod nano

which would have become useless if u bought a real high endphone.

so i settled for this one.

pros- got all features, but of low quality.

cons - the fm does not work without earphones inserted. u cannot use fm while charging as they have a common point.
listening to fm on speakers drains the battery real fast.
amazingly, speakers are loud for Fm, but u have to insert the earhphone, but u can hear the mp3s on the speakers without inserting the earphone. but the speakers have almost no sound with mp3s. very low volume speakers.

speakers are of too low volume. u cant hear the mp3's on speaker. u HAVE to use earphones.
also music player quality cannot be compared to ipod at all. no deep bass etc.

if u use mp3 ringtones from stored mp3s, the ring is hardly audible from speakers...

ring tone is very feeble and not loud.

the display is very average. nothing sharp about it.
same for the camera and video recorder. it is only 0.3mp!!!!

all in all if u want a midlevel phone with midlevel pricing with all features in it, it is ok, with lot of compromises.

but if u want quality features as mentioned above, and u are prepared to pay 50% or 100% more, then this phone is not for u.

i got this only because otherwise my camera and ipod wud have become redundant.

I'm working in a cellular shop and this weekend i had 2 customers who almost killed me and said the phone is no good,the batery life does;nt last long and there is something wrong with the speaker...when you down load a song,it plays 100% but a soon you put on ring tone it takes like 5 seconds before it plays.What's wrong with it

I would like to know if this works for samsung e250 as well.

I bought e250 last week. It is realy nice looking and useful but the battery life is very bad. Even in a 10 min of talking the battery indicator drops almost to half. I have to recharge everyday. Also the display is not very well it should be better.

kk so i bought the phone now i have 1 question... how do i plug the phone into my comp? cause it doesn't come with a USB. we'll it SORTA does ebcause it came with a speaker box which came with a USB but the end doesn't plug into the phone. it plugs into the spear box but then there is another wire which comes off the speaker box that can go into my phone so now i am just confused... so my question is how can i plug my phone into the computer?

this phone is wonderful.i like all its features.but i have some doubt whether this phone as expandable memory(how much).does this have USB support .in our place we didn't get anything.please can you reply.
